1st annual "Jan-Jan memorial ridge ride" just got back at 10:00 pm last night just as it started to rain in Nerk, Ohio  -  519 miles Saturday from Blowing Rock NC back home in Ohio on Rt 16 I hit only the curvy roads as much as possible up & down  in SE Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina & Tenn.

Ohio 146 - 313 - 147 - 800 crossed in New Martinsville
West Va 20 - 19 - 15 - 219 - 39 - 60 to the Blue Ridge Parkway
Virginia, North Carolina Roanoke to Boone on the Parkway then on to Shady Valley 421 - 191 - 58 loop then back to Ohio on Rt 16 thru West Virginia 
 

Seen some Valks parked on 421 in Boone Friday afternoon they where gone when I came back down  ???   Rt 16 was great except for folowing some Sunday drivers on Saturday over the Hungry Mother  and they where bikers

Just about home and I almost get wiped out by bike cyclist  and all within 3 miles of home. Then it started to rain  - fortunetly I had the bike in the garage before the big rain hit - just got soaked moving my gear back into the house 

Helped a fellow biker in Boone NC - he came up to a stop on the oposing traffic and was trying to shift back down into first gear and he fell over  ???  I helped him upright his bike 

Heading north on Rt 16 on the Hungry Mother I ran into a goup of Sunday drivers on a Saturday  , I finally got around them in Tazwell - I took the by-pass  They where bikers with a rubber neck 

FYI if your using 16 in West Va - watch the RR crossing in WAR the transision accross the tracks very bad with large chunks of cinders

1500 miles in four days,.....sheesh!

If you were the typical HD HOG rider that would be most of the riding season.

My brother has a 1992 HD FLHS, and his dealer strongly recommended that putting on more than 1000 miles per year would severely depreciate the value of his investment. He adheres to that advice be cause he now has less than 13K on it.

If I followed that advise, all my bikes would be less than worthless (73K on my 2K I/S, 54K on my 98 Rat Rod Valk, 159K on my 82 GL1100 & 72K on my 82 CB750F).

I may have to pay someone big bucks to take them off my hands.
